Description: At the conclusion of this session, attendees will be equipped to apply relative risk curves in their actuarial work, including the ability to examine dose-response relationships, apply population attributable fractions (PAFs), and develop customized risk models for cause-specific mortality and morbidity outcomes based on individual-level exposures to selected risk factors. These skills are becoming increasingly important as actuaries adopt novel applications of big data and dynamic health information to refine risk assessments and keep pace with global health trends.

Description: Recent and potential near future extreme experiences are leading us to a new normal rather than back to the prior environment. Learn more about several examples of past Regime Changes along with a detailed discussion of how recent disruptions lead toward a persistent change in the business, social and political environment. Come develop an understanding of these drivers of change as well as the likely impacts on the Financial Services industry.

Description: Attend this webcast to learn more on how to navigate managing ESG principles in the new normal of a post-COVID world. Enhance your ESG insights in a post-pandemic landscape.

Description: The Society of Actuaries (SOA) Research Institute received a grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to educate insurance actuaries on the use of wildfire risk datasets and models to be developed by researchers from academia and the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Description: This report provides a methodology for identifying climate regime shifts in different scenarios to prepare insurers for the impacts of climate change. It discusses physical tipping points, socio-economic tipping points, and regime shifts affecting the insurance industry, with a focus on wildfires in California and heat stress in the Pacific Northwest.

Description: The topics of ESG (Environmental, Social & Corporate Governance) and sustainability are an increasing area of focus for insurance companies, and thus actuaries. This webcast provides a primer on these topics along with considerations for US valuation actuaries and their evolution in European insurance markets.

Description: The NAIC is in the middle of their GOES (generator of economic scenarios) project to change the real-world economic scenario generator (ESG) prescribed for principle-based reserve and capital calculations.

Description: A preview of the details and content of the new Certificate in Climate Risk to be offered by the SOA beginning in early 2023.

Description: At the conclusion of this session attendees will be familiar with the status of the NAIC's GOES project and have a better understanding of the scenario sets under consideration and how they can be tested to assess the potential impact to principle-based reserve and capital levels.
